Note : use git bash on windows as all are bash scripts and are not ported over to batch shell

How to build

To build you can use scripts/buid.sh script to create a clean build.

It will create a build folder(remove build folder if present), compile the program, copy files from public/ folder to build/bin/ and run it.

These are test files feel free to replace them, but don't remove input.txt and output.txt.

cd scripts/
chmod +x build.sh
./build.sh

If you want to enable php fpm, use

./build.sh -DUSE_PHP_FPM=ON

If you make some changes on code and want to rebuild

./rebuild.sh

OR

./rebuild.sh -DUSE_PHP_FPM=ON

and if you just want to run it again

./run.sh

OR

cd build/bin/
./HTTPWebServer

Now add/replace whatever supported files you want to.

It'll run at: localhost:8080

Requirements

Make sure to install php, php-fpm and fast cgi

php-cgi and cgi-fcgi should be executables.

Note

When using PHP_FPM you may want to use sudo so that the server can comunicate with fpm without getting access denied.
